### Templates

<!-- user repo properties on github to match? -->

Shareable configurations that can be synced to multiple repos automatically.

Templates are synced to `.codereview/<template>.toml` at the root of the repo.

To use a template that has been synced to a repo, you can use the `extends` setting in the `CODEREVIEW.toml` file.

```toml
extends = [".codereview/base.toml"]

# Additional scopes appended to the template scopes
[[scopes]]
name = "new-scope"
# ...
```

Templates will likely be matched to repos by using [CEL expressions](https://cel.dev/) on repo topics, custom properties, or name.

- `repo.topics.contains("pullapprove-python")`

If you prefer, you can also use something like [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/) to manage the syncing of templates across multiple repos.
